SUPER BOWL
I love Super Bowl week. I love it because I love sports cliche and hyperbole, especially when it pertains to football.
"They came to play"
"It's gut check time"
"Down in the trenches Ridell to Ridell"
I love it all. But mostly, I love Super Bowl week because the NFL Network and ESPN replay all of the old NFL Game Films shows about previous Super Bowls. And that always means 4 30min. episodes of the mighty Pittsburgh Steelers of the Seventies. The 4 Champion Teams of 74, 75, 78, and 79.
Terry Bradshaw, Lynn Swann, John Stallworth, Franco Harris, Rocky Blier, Mean Joe, LC, Dwight White, Jack Lambert, Mel Blount, and all of the rest. One more go around of the mightiest dynasties of all time, the 1970's Steelers. I love it.
